TABLETS TO THE MEMORY OF THE LATE SIR JOHN BARROW, BART. Within the last few days Mr. T. Milne, an eminent sculptor from London, has visited this place, deputed by Mr. Barrow, of the Admiralty, son of the late Sir John Barrow, to superintend the erection of a tablet in the south aisle of the parish church, to the memory of the late baronet. It is from Mr. Milne's design, presents a most chaste appearance, and is inscribed as follows:-"Sacred to the memory of Sir John Barrow, Bart., LL.D., F.R.S., 40 years secretary of the Admiralty, who was born in a small cottage in the adjoining village of Dragley Beck, on the 19th June, 1764; and departed this life on the 23rd of November, 1848. Full of years and honour. Soli Deo Gloria." A tablet also in remembrance of Sir John was yesterday placed in the humble cottage, at Dagley Beck, wherein he was born, of which the following is a copy:-"In this humble cottage-the best memorial of his enter. prising spirit, industry, and perseverance-was born on the 19th June, 1764, Sir John Barrow, Bart, LL.D., F.R.S., &c. who accompanied Lord Macartney's Embassy to China; who travelled far into the interior of Africa; and who was for forty years (embracing the whole period of the last war), Secretary of the Admiralty. He died in London on the 23rd November, 1848, in the 85th year of his age, remarkable for the vigour of his mind, as his latter works abundantly testify, and scarcely less remarkable for the activity of his body. Soli Deo Gloria." We may mention here, that Mr. Milne, the "gentleman alluded to above, is the artist who executed the colossal statue of the Duke of Wellington, at the Tower of London. He has also just completed the model of a colossal statue to be erected to the memory of Lord Nelson, in the city of Norwich, and has also furnished two designs for the Barrow Monument intended to be erected in this locality.-Ulverstone Advertiser.
